The route includes important tourist resorts at Nerja, Torrox Costa and Algarrobo Costa.
The inland villages lie within the foothills of the Sierra Almijara mountain range and have retained much of their original Moorish structure. The main agricultural product in the areas surrounding these villages is the grape, from which many very good wines are produced.

Useful Information


From Torrox Costa the route follows the coastal N-340 in an easterly direction. Two watchtowers built in the 16th century for defense over the beaches are found here; the Torre del Morche and the Torre de Calaceite. The fortress of Castle Bago previously stood between these two towers.

After 8 kilometres of following a coastline of cliffs to the left and coves, rocks and small beaches to the right, just before reaching Nerja, a road to the left leads 6 kilometres to Frigiliana. Two more watchtowers are seen on the coast road before turning off to Frigiliana; these are the Torre Macaca and the Torrecilla.
